   I am frankly a bit bewildered by all this. The US administration lies and lies. The Iranians lie. Doomers keep talking about how gas prices will skyrocket "in two weeks". Occasionally the "everything is fine, nothing to see here" folks wheel out some journalist saying there will be a peace deal any day now.

   It's pretty difficult to figure out what the reality is besides "not good".

      Diesel touched $8.99/gal this week. I want to know what happens when the sign runs out of digits at $10.

      Is it tied to the cash register? Will the pumps run out of digits too? Will they still be able to sell gas?

      One thing I can say: My F150 won’t care. It runs off solar.

         The Simpson&#x27;s had a nice take: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=7dxVwA7bU2E" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=7dxVwA7bU2E
